News: Avengers Origins One-Shots

In November 2011, Marvel Comics will be releasing five comic book one-shots each being a double-sized story serving as a revised telling of the origin of a particular member (or duo of members) of the Avengers group. Here are the one-shots listed below:

  • "Avengers Origins: Thor"
  • "Avengers Origins: Vision"
  • "Avengers Origins: Luke Cage"
  • "Avengers Origins: Ant-Man & The Wasp"
  • "Avengers Origins: Quicksilver & The Scarlet Witch"

Although these stories have to do with the mainstream Marvel Universe (Earth-616), this will probably help moviegoers cope with the long wait for the upcoming 2012 film "The Avengers", which will be in continuity with films "Iron Man" (2008), "The Incredible Hulk" (2008), "Iron Man 2" (2010), "Thor" (2011) and "Captain America: The First Avenger" (2011).
